What is
the Cooperative Education Program?
Cooperative Education gives SFSU students get an opportunity to apply classroom
knowledge to real-world work situations. The student gets the best of all
worlds--paid work experience with great employers, academic credit, and a taste
of their chosen career.

before…employers liked our students so much, they hired them on permanently.

graduation, you'll have VALUABLE WORK EXPERIENCE to go with your degree.
